Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@Alanj1970 When did you file?
Both Turbo Tax Online and Desktop programs have been updated for the exclusion and will give it to you automatically if you qualify. If you have unemployment you can exclude up to 10,200 (per spouse) if your income is under $150,000. Your unemployment compensation will be on Schedule 1 line 7. The exclusion will be on Schedule 1 Line 8 as a negative number. The result flows to Form 1040 Line 8.
If you have not filed just enter the 1099G.
If you have filed. The IRS will recalculate your return for the new unemployment exemption for you. There is no need for taxpayers to file an amended return unless the calculations make the taxpayer newly eligible for additional federal credits and deductions not already included on the original tax return.
